Coronavirus: Putin says it has been approved for use in the vaccine – BBC News

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that the vaccine developed at the site against Covid-19 has been given regulatory approval after humans have been tested for less than two months. Putin said the vaccine had passed all required controls, adding that it had already been given to his daughter. Officials have said they plan to begin a massive vaccination in October. Experts have raised concerns about the speed of Russia’s work, and researchers suggest that the edges are being cut. Fearing that security might be in jeopardy, the World Health Organization (WHO) last week called on Russia to follow international guidelines for producing a vaccine against Covid-19. On Tuesday, the WHO said it had been with Russian authorities conducting a review of the vaccine, under the name Sputnik-V. #BBCOS #BBCOutsideSource Please subscribe HERE .
